Niger's Withdrawal From ICC is Only the Beginning as Africa Condemns Selective Justice: Chadian Expert

This decision is merely the realization of a desire long expressed behind the scenes, former Chadian Minister of Justice Ahmat Mahamat Hassan told Sputnik Africa.

"Several African nations accuse the court of selective justice focused only on weak states," he said, noting that for the ICC, crimes only exist when committed by African leaders.

The institution urgently needs reform, Hassan added. The ICC must be fair, expanded, and strictly adhere to international law, which is rooted in respect for state sovereignty, he emphasized.
